Living Inside A Pollock.

Living inside a Pollock After effects animation from Andrés Magana on Vimeo.

This animation features a nice sense of progression, starting off from a single drop of ink, and spreading out to a complex maze of webs that go into the background, and exist in multiple planes. I like the way the camera goes into the webs, as it allows you to feel more involved in it, as if you are going deeper into the animation, rather than just show it to you as two dimensional. Also, the subtle rotations throughout the piec makes it seem as if it is truly 3D, not just clever manipulations of 2D shapes. I am aiming to add some psuedo-3D qualities into my motion graphic, as I find the affect appealing, and believe it draws in the user more than a standard 2D image; I will achieve this by using 3D Layers in Adobe After Effects.

I enjoy the use of limited colours during this motion graphic, and I believee this adds to the appeal of it. The use of red, which is introduce partway briefly, also adds to ths appeal. I like the sense of progression in this animation, but I would like my motion graphic to show a true sense of progression, rather than just start off as something small, and expand to be more complex.
